     The trainees clapped their hands and were shocked by the sounds of the emblems behind them. Then the trainees noticed that there were numbers on it including the chairs. Then the screen started to play.

     When everyone was seated on their chairs the first test for part 2 was revealed. "This test will be about your ability to become global idols. Twelve I-landers will perform in three units, the unit with the highest score will be safe from getting eliminated" The voice said.

     The I-landers were shocked and nervous. "If the lowest ranking I-lander is among the first placed unit the next rank I-lander will be eliminated. With this test, the producers will be selecting one person to eliminate" The voice said as the trainees sighed.

     "Now the song for the first test will be revealed" The voice said as the name 'BTS' flashed on the screen making the trainees happy and excited. Then the video of BTS in I-land played making the trainees shocked and surprised once again.
